Dallas—Hospital systems are complex, with thousands of vendors helping to keep things working so healthcare providers can tend to sick patients.

Valify, a Dallas-area startup, wants to use software and analytics to help hospitals better track the vendors they use and how much they are paying—and see how that stacks up against their peer institutions. Today, the company will announce that it has raised $2 million in a Series A round.

“Strangely enough, it’s hard for a health system to know many (vendors) they’re using across the system,” says Chris Heckler, president and CEO of Valify. “We provide pure visibility.”
